Unfortunately, they often find themselves feeling unfulfilled, stressed or overwhelmed without anyone to turn to for support and guidance. Finding a balance in life between academics, work, clubs and friends can seem nearly impossible at times. Lady leaders frequently aren’t appreciated for the work they do for clubs or organizations and rarely get the academic feedback they need. They are left feeling as though their heads are barely above water with everything they have to juggle.

Through years of trial and error, she’s learned how to balance academics, extracurricular activities and a social life like a champion.
